Rising Insane is a German metalcore band based out of Schierbrok, a community in the Ganderkesee municipality formed in 2012.[1][2]
History
Formation in 2012 and departure of Dannebaum in 2013
At the start, the band consisted of vocalist Aaron Steineker, guitarist and backing vocalist Florian Köchy, guitarist Helge Dannebaum, bassist Ulf Hedenkamp, and drummer Robert Kühling. A year into the project, guitarist Helge Dannebaum left the group and was replaced with Sven Polizuk.[1]
Nation and Impericon Festival (2017-2019)
Within the five-year gap between the band formation and their first album, Rising Insane was in the midst of founding the Springsane Festival and making contact with the German metal scene. The band's very first major album titled Nation was recorded and released in 2017 while recording under German record label recordJet. In 2018, the band went on tour throughout Germany and Austria with fellow German metalcore band Annisokay. In 2019, Rising Insane won the Next Generation competition in the jury prize category, and they were set to perform at the Impericon Festival in Leipzig.[3][4][5]
Porcelain and Recovered, COVID-19 pandemic (2019–2020)
In 2019, Rising Insane released their second major album, Porcelain, after signing with Long Branch Records. In that time period, Aaron Steineker's sister died, causing him to deal with post-traumatic stress. In 2020, COVID-19 hit, forcing a halt to their tours and the lockdowns, which gave them the time to work on their guitar sounds and release two EPs, Recovered, a metal cover label consisting of four songs; Blinding Lights by The Weeknd, Physical by Dua Lipa, Maniac by Michael Sembello, and Heathens by Twenty One Pilots. and an acoustic version of Porcelain, consisting of four songs in acoustic version from their Porcelain album.[1][3]
